Pace University students who live in the dorms on Henry Street were hanging out in Brooklyn Heights Monday since the city shut down the school -- along with a good chunk of lower Manhattan -- because the strong winds were blowing all kinds of debris off buildings.

Several contractors will have to answer to this, according to the NY Times.

Meanwhile, we in Brooklyn suffered the indignity of broken umbrellas and very wet shoes. It was so windy on certain blocks and corners that people had a hard time walking and had to actually go inside somewhere till it blew over.
